About Just back from a fabulous week in Crete. Enjoyed wonderful weather and great walking. This is the first of three sunsets taken whilst there. I used a three stop soft ND grad to tone down the sky and an 81B warm-up to counter the blue tinge that affects Velvia in this light. As usual, there's a tale to tell in the capture of this image. I had been quietly standing on a narrow ledge of rock on the edge of the sea, watching the evening light evolve and waiting for a ferry to pass by. I was just bending over the camera to take this image when the ferry's wash wooshed in and soaked me up to my knees!

Excellent landscape shot! Great exposure and i love the smooth effect on the water. The skylight is also very beautiful and it has a very romantic sunset effect. Bravo! 7+++

Best regard Joe

My favourite Cretan Sunset, because of its compository qualities. Lighting and colors are spot-on, war-up not overdone to create a nice contrast of warm and cold colors.

Barry - really enjoy this fotograph. the lush water, the sky, and the leading foreground line. all quite interesting and effective. two little spots grab me though... I cannot tell what the objects are that are sitting in the water right before the cliff side. they are a little distracting because they merge with the distant background cliffs. also the rock in the middle ground feels a little lonely (sort of in the frame and sort of out of the frame -- know what I'm saying). fine fotograph though with wonderful color!
